MODULE TWO Chapter 2
My card block disintegrated at this point!! I made a more durable version with two layers cut from a polystyrene plate, topped with fun foam and then the design. The whole thing was held together with double-sided cellotape.
Navy cotton with background printed with green using a textured yarn wrapped around a foam roller. The block print in orange/yellow has the block inverted for alternate prints.
Pink cotton with a sponge printed background using a russet and metallic copper mix. The green block print has the block rotated by a quarter turn for each print. This was overprinted with copper.
Black felt screen printed with sky blue but this was not successful, the blue being too thin to "sit" on the felt. The block print uses ulttamarine mixed with white and overprinted with silver. I am quite pleased with the effect createds by the stitching.
I really enjoyed the print and stitch exercises.
